Breakfast Burrito Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Caramelize the Onions and Peppers

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, cooking until they are soft and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chorizo (if using)

    In the same skillet, add chorizo (if using) and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  4. 4

    Add Eggs and Beans

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the caramelized onions, peppers, and chorizo. Stir gently until the eggs are cooked through. Add the black beans and cooked potatoes, mixing well.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burritos

    Warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave. Spoon the egg mixture onto each tortilla, sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese, and pour pork green chili over the top.

  6. 6

    Wrap and Serve

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly. Serve immediately with additional green chili if desired.
